Lo Mejor de Joe Cuba – Joe Cuba, 1971

🎷🎺🥁🇵🇷💃 – Latin stopover in Puerto Rico with boogaloo pioneer Gilberto Calderon aka Joe Cuba. He remains one of the genre’s founders, blending the Cuban son with Western pop. A look back at his hits with this 1971 compilation including Bang Bang, Hey Joe Hey Joe and T.C.O.B. His song El Pito (I’ll Never Go Back to Georgia) was written after getting booed at a show in that state, vowing never to return.
